Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr
All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.
Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.
It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.
The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.
Thank you though for all the memories
Phil Sumbler

I've still got a newspaper from that day, no idea where it is tbh though or I'd dig it out a post a pic of the front page.

I've known Bobby Jones since I was a child. Super nice bloke (so much of a nicer man than his brother - CZJ's father). Schoolfriend of my brother from Cadle school if I remember right. The lest time I saw him was at my father's funeral and he really didn't look well. I was quite shocked. For some strange reason I always am when I see people deteriorate from the condition I remember, as if they should be fixed in time. Anyway, I don't really know all the ins an outs of that time as I was broke in the smoke, but here's to you Bob.

Funnily enough, I remember that Christmas as being a bit of a non event too.
Mel spent plenty of it in our house trying to work out plans to bring all sections of fans together.
It worked. As the Supporters club, FOSFA, the VIPs plus other interested party’s came together and had many meetings in The Grand Hotel. These meetings were all well attended, no one wanted professional football to end in West Wales.
Fans worked very hard to raise money, and in the end helped to get our club running again. I for one will never forget the work these fans put in to help save our club.

Not been my best year health wise Clive, starting on Boxing Day it’s been one thing after another.
I think my season ticket would have been wasted even without COVID.
But it’s been good that I can watch the Swans on my laptop, and outdoing what I had expected for this season.
Compliments of this weird season to you and family.

Sorry to hear that, hope you and yours have as best a Christmas as you can. Let's hope that next year brings a positive change.
